Previously there was a special extraction process for "vertex colors"
that copied the color data to the GPU with a special format. Instead,
this patch replaces this with use of the generic attribute extraction.
This reduces the number of code paths, allowing easier optimization
in the future.
To make it possible to use the generic extraction system for attributes
but also assign aliases for use by shaders, some changes are necessary.
First, the GPU material attribute can now store whether it actually refers
to the default color attribute, rather than a specific name. This replaces
the hack to use `CD_MCOL` in the color attribute shader node. Second,
the extraction code checks the names against the default and active
names and assigns aliases if the request corresponds to a special active
attribute. Finally, support for byte color attributes was added to the
generic attribute extraction.

Previously the attribute name was only stored in the request for curves.
Instead, pass it as part of the "add request" function, so that it is
always used. Since the whole attribute pipeline is name-based,
this can simplify code in a few places.

After this commit, all mesh data extraction and drawing code is in C++,
including headers, making it possible to use improved types for future
performance improvements and simplifications.
The only non-trivial changes are in `draw_cache_impl_mesh.cc`,
where use of certain features and macros in C necessitated larger
changes.

This adds support to render Curves attributes in EEVEE.
Each attribute is stored in a texture derived from a VBO. As the
shading group needs the textures to be valid upon creation, the
attributes are created and setup during its very creation, instead
of doing it lazily via create_requested which we cannot rely on
anyway as contrary to the mesh batch, we do cannot really tell if
attributes need to be updated or else via some `DRW_batch_requested`.
Since point attributes need refinement, and since attributes are all
cast to vec4/float4 to account for differences in type conversions
between Blender and OpenGL, the refinement shader for points is
used as is. The point attributes are stored for each subdivision level
in CurvesEvalFinalCache. Each subdivision level also keeps track of the
attributes already in use so they are properly updated when needed.
Some basic garbage collection was added similar to what is done
for meshes: if the attributes used over time have been different
from the currently used attributes for too long, then the buffers
are freed, ensuring that stale attributesare removed.
This adds `CurvesInfos` to the shader creation info, which stores
the scope in which the attributes are defined. Scopes are stored
as booleans, in an array indexed by attribute loading order which
is also the order in which the attributes were added to the material.
A mapping is necessary between the indices used for the scoping, and
the ones used in the Curves cache, as this may contain stale
attributes which have not been garbage collected yet.
Common utilities with the mesh code for handling requested
attributes were moved to a separate file.
